It has been a while since we last saw any new The Last of Us eye candy, but just as many hoped – we had a brand new peek at the game during the 2012 VGAs over the weekend in Los Angeles. A brand new trailer has been revealed by Naughty Dog showing a combination of both gameplay and cutscenes, but more importantly for fans – a confirmation at last on a solid release date for the game.
The game is expected to be one of the final highlights on the PlayStation 3 along with GTA V before the PS4 arrives, although having said that there is now Dark Souls 2 apparently on the way to the PS3 as well, thus proving that the console is far from dead just yet.
Ellie features heavily throughout just like the previous reveals for the game, while there is also a glimpse of civilization as well in a busy town area which doesn’t appear to have been infected yet. Going back to GTA V though, is there possibly a danger of The Last of Us playing second fiddle to Rockstar’s game, since we know it will release during Spring 2013?
Grand Theft Auto V was released on PC on the 14th of April 2015. That means the game will be nine years old in four days, and it’s still among the most-played titles on Steam. With a 24-hour peak of 145K players, it’s as popular as Baldur’s Gate 3, Apex: Legends, and Destiny 2.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.
Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…
Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.
Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game
The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.
I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls
Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games
I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
I can't wait for them both, roll on 2013!
Believe me the people that have a PS3 that I know WILL be getting The Last of Us no matter if GTA V comes out within the same month. Idk I guess the whole concept of the game is something PS3 gamers have been craving for a while. There is a ton of games coming out in the first half of next year but I'm pretty sure people will find a way to get the game. Personally I prefer it more than GTA V since I wasn't a big fan of IV. Plus I always prefer somewhat linear games over open world because I always invest myself into the story more. It's rare when I get through an open world game. Pretty sure I ain't the only one.
I'll be getting both day no doubt
I think GTAV will obviously sell more, but everyone that bought and played Uncharted will definitely buy TLOU. It's also more mature and its violence cant be marketed like GTAV (which is comical).
Damn, TLOU won everything at this year's E3, it blows everyone away everytime we see a trailer or gameplay video. And it's ND ffs! They've proved enough this gen with Uncharted.
All everyone is thinking is if this is GOTY material or GOTD material.
Since GTA V is on schedule and slated to be insane, while the last of us is the newest of the Duke Nukem Forever fiascos... I'd go with GTA V.
